Subseries: B. General Correspondence, 1942-1947 : General correspondence is perhaps the most interesting and important part of this
collection. These materials consist primarily of responses to Hoffman's research
inquiries by various literary figures including Henry Miller, Frieda Lawrence (widow
of D.H. Lawrence), Floyd Dell, Thomas Mann, and Ezra Pound. In some cases, Hoffman's
letters of inquiry are available as well. The correspondence deals with a variety of
topics and lines of research, especially Freudianism and its influence on the
responding authors, literature in the 1920s, and sales figures of various books and
publishers.
